Budget 2022 declared Cryptocurrency as a taxable source of income in India

Good news for cryptocurrency investors!

The government has declared the Union budget 2022, and our honourable finance minister has announced a 30% flat tax on Crypto trading income. No deductions are allowed on these incomes. But a step ahead towards recognition in the budget 2022 is much appreciated.

The losses are not offset against any other income and gifting crypto coins are also liable for tax on the hands of recipients.

A long demanding wish of investors and traders to throw the lights on the taxes of digital income. Though the government is still not yet promoting trading it will be considered as an income of lottery, games winning prizes, jackpot etc.

It is enough for investors that income from cryptocurrency has got the label of legal asset though which is taxable.

The introduction of taxes on the transfer of digital assets is a welcome move towards its acceptance and upfront clarity of investors and buyers on how they are paying tax on their digital income.

India finally welcomed crypto income with tax levied on it. At a global glance, the acceptance of digital currency is much faster. It is the prediction that digital currency is the only means of exchange. Well, India is getting closer year by year.

Now other countries will initiate their steps towards trading with countries like India but a high tax rate of 30% restricts some investors from entering the market.
